Back-end Web Development
(Evening course)
Next start: January 19, 2026
Backend development is the technical foundation of every modern website or application. It's where data is processed, logic is implemented, and interfaces are created – in short, everything that happens "behind the scenes." As a backend developer, you ensure that systems run stably, securely, and efficiently.
You will work with SQL (MySQL) and develop databases, learn requirements engineering and SCRUM to implement projects in a structured manner, and program powerful web applications with PHP, AJAX and the Symfony Framework.
With your knowledge of data structures, server logic, and interfaces, you are the link between the frontend, database, and application. In this way, you make a crucial contribution to ensuring that complex digital solutions function smoothly – from small web projects to large enterprise applications.
Join us for the next course start and become a Backend Developer in just 16 weeks while working full-time.

Course description
This course has a practical focus. On Mondays and Wednesdays, you'll receive theoretical input and then work on examples where you can apply your newly acquired knowledge. Fridays are reserved for questions and answers. If desired or necessary, additional content will be added or reviewed on Fridays. Our instructors will guide you throughout the day and are always available to offer advice and support.
Requirements & Completion
This course requires motivation, personal responsibility, and a willingness to learn. Prior programming knowledge is not necessary, but it can help you keep up, especially at the beginning. We therefore recommend that you familiarize yourself with HTML/CSS and JavaScript. If you need more support, you can also take our basic course on these topics. We are happy to advise you individually.
Throughout the course, you'll collect points (quizzes, exams, etc.). Both the frontend and backend modules each have a final project where you'll work in a group on a project of your choosing. If you achieve the minimum number of points and complete the final presentation, CodeFactory will award you your Full Stack Developer certificate.
